The rhinos in Ree Park are Black Rhinos, but their horns are still in high demand in black markets in Asia, particularly in Vietnam and China, where Rhino horn is used in traditional Chinese medicine.

“In Ree Park we have taken the necessary precautions, and all our rhinos are protected and monitored 24 hours a day,” the park wrote on its website.

“We work closely with the local police, and internationally we work through our network and Europol to protect the rhinos, and make sure they are safe. In Ree Park all the exhibited rhinoceros horns are copies made of plastic.”
